State Transitions

State Transitions

State transition rules determine whether and when a record can change from one state to another.
The following table describes the common transitions and notes any differences between base object records and cross-reference records: 
From State
To State
Notes
ACTIVE
DELETED
This transition is called a soft delete.
PENDING
ACTIVE
This transition is called promote.
DELETED
ACTIVE
This transition is called restore.
A
cross-reference
record can be restored. A
base object
record can be restored only if cross-reference records are restored.
DELETED
PENDING
You cannot change a deleted record to a pending record. This transition happens indirectly only. If you delete an active base object record and then add a pending cross-reference record for the deleted record, the base object record state goes from ACTIVE to DELETED to PENDING.
Note: The following state transitions are not valid:
  • ACTIVE to PENDING. An active record cannot change to a pending record.
  • PENDING to DELETED. You can delete a pending record, but it does not transition to the DELETED state. Instead, the
    MDM Hub
    removes the record from the database. This is called a hard delete. You cannot restore a hard-deleted record.
